Note
For a leased line or if the ISDN protocol is not detected, the ISDN SWITCH TYPE
can be entered manually. The automatic D-channel detection is then switched
off.
An incorrectly set ISDN protocol prevents ISDN connections being set up!
In most cases, you can accept the preset values for D-CHANNEL, B-CHANNEL 1
and
B-CHANNEL 2.
If you use an ISDN leased line and have requested a special service from your
service provider, it may be necessary to set the local side of the leased line at
this point (DTE or DCE). You must then ensure that the far end has set the
other value. You must also set
the same values, if you have selected several D-/B-channels under
SWITCH TYPE and the values can be changed.

The ISDN BRI2:X ➜ INCOMING CALL ANSWERING➜ ADD/EDIT submenu is for
assigning the available ISDN numbers to the desired services (e.g. PPP routing,
➤➤ ISDN Login).
If you use the BRI for incoming and outgoing dialup connections, you must enter
the own numbers for this interface (these settings are not possible for leased
lines). The gateway distributes the incoming calls to the internal services ac
cording to the settings in this menu. Outgoing calls include the own number as
calling party number.
The gateway supports the following services:
■PPP (Routing):

example, hosts connected to your gateway to receive and send faxes.
To be able to use CAPI applications from the hosts in the LAN with your
gateway, you must also carry out the Remote CAPI configuration on the individual hosts in addition to distributing the extension numbers as described in this chapter.
When a call is received, the gateway first checks the called party number (CPN)
and the type of call (data or voice call). The CPN is the extension the partner
has dialed to reach the gateway. The call is then forwarded to the corresponding
service.
All incoming calls that do not match any of the existing entries, are transmitted
to the CAPI service.
If no settings have been made (ex works state), all incoming calls via ISDN are
accepted by the ISDN-login service. To avoid this it is recommended to adjust
the required settings of this menu.
